User/Patient Safety* WARNINGS: • Read and understand the information in this manual. Familiarization with the Stryker System 5 Battery Powered Instruments prior to use is important. • Prior to each use, operate system components and inspect for damage. DO NOT use if damage is apparent. Take special precaution regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) when using medical electrical equipment like the System 5 handpiece. Install and place the handpiece into service according to the EMC information in this manual. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment, such as wireless phones, can affect the function of the handpiece. • Use only Stryker approved accessories. Other accessories may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the system. Contact your Stryker sales representative for a complete list of accessories. DO NOT modify any accessory. Failure to comply may result in patient and/or operating room staff injury. • Prior to each use, system components should be operated and inspected for any loose components or damage. DO NOT use if these conditions exist. Loose components could fall off the handpiece into the wound site causing potential patient injury. • Clean and sterilize instruments before first and every use. • This equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anesthetic mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide. • Avoid unintentional operation of the handpiece. A handpiece that contains a battery should always be placed in the SAFE mode while it is either sitting idle or an accessory is being attached or removed. Remove the battery pack from the handpiece when the instrument is not in use. • DO NOT pry or use excessive force on the blade as it may bend and/or break causing potential patient injury. • Use only Stryker approved accessories. Only Stryker saw blades can be used with the Reciprocating Saw. A list of accessories is available from your Stryker Instruments sales representative.

• DO NOT service handpieces or battery packs. These products contain no parts that the user can service. • If you are using one of the following blades, be alert to blade whip when the handpiece is operated below the maximum speed: Double Sided Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-275 47.5 x 6 x 0.77mm Offset Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-251 70 x 12.5 x 8mm Double Sided Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-276 70 x 12.5 x 1mm Double Sided Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-277 Long Heavy Duty Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-325 Blade whip increases the chance of blade fracture and user/patient injury. • Reuse of single use blades can cause blade breakage and possible injury to the patient and/or user. • When using the Short Reciprocating Blade REF 277-96-250, DO NOT operate the handpiece until the blade is in contact with bone or tissue. Operating the handpiece before the blade is in contact with bone or tissue may cause the blade to break or eject from the handpiece and endanger persons nearby.

CAUTIONS: • DO NOT stall the handpiece to prevent damaging the electric motor and/or battery pack. If the handpiece jams, release the trigger immediately. Remove any obstructions before continuing the procedure. • Do not immerse the handpiece or battery pack. Water may enter the casing and damage the electrical components.

Instructions Blade Installation

Battery Pack Installation

WARNING:

NOTES: • The Reciprocating Saw is designed to accept REF 4115, REF 4116, or REF 4126 batteries. These batteries may be charged in the System 4 or 5 Battery Charger configured with Charger Module REF 4110-415, REF 4110-416, or REF 4110-426 respectively. The REF 4115 battery may also be charged in the System 2000 Charger with Battery Adaptor (REF 4110-115). • Refer to the instructions supplied with the battery charger and/or battery for charging details and specifications.

Always place the trigger switch in the SAFE position before attaching or removing any accessory to prevent inadvertent running of the handpiece. 1. Set the trigger switch to the SAFE position. 2. Rotate the spring-loaded blade collar clockwise aligning the slots. Insert the blade (see figure 1).

NOTE: The blade teeth may be directed in any of four positions.

1. Slide a fully charged battery pack firmly into the handpiece until the battery latch snaps, indicating the pack is secure (see figure 2).

3. Release the blade collar. Ensure the blade collar springs back to its original position indicating the blade is properly seated.

2. Test the operation of the handpiece by setting the trigger switch to the RUN position and squeezing the trigger.

4. Gently tug the blade back and forth to ensure it is secure.

INTERVAL

ACTIVITY

Prior to each use.

Inspect, operate and test the handpiece to ensure that it is working properly. Ensure that there are no loose or missing components. Check all moving parts for free movement. Be alert for unusual sounds or vibrations and note the operating speed.

Saw Operation NOTE: The handpiece has a variable speed motor that is controlled by slight pressure variations on the trigger.

CAUTION: When operating the saw, let the blade do the cutting. Applying too much pressure will bend the blade and reduce the cutting quality.

Storage and Handling Battery Pack Removal To ensure the longevity, performance and safety of this equipment, package in original packaging materials when storing or transporting.

Depress the battery latch and pull the battery pack out.

Blade Removal Rotate the spring-loaded blade collar clockwise to realign the slots and remove the blade.
